Will you go to an Internet bar even after you have got a computer?

I don't whether there are many Internet bars in other countries, but I know there are many in China and I used to go to an Internet bar to surf the Internet, play computer games and so on. But after I got a computer, I seldom go to there. However, though it is much cheaper to get online at home than in an Internet bar and your computer maybe much better than those in an Internet bar, I often think about go there to review the feelings and atmosphere in an Internet bar. Anyhow, I learnt that there's one thing in the world called computer from an Internet bar. How about you,my friends? What's your feeling about an Internet bar?

hello there... i pretty much will go to internet bar or in my country called as cybercafe because in there, they have a huge collection of games online and also installed into the computer... sometimes you cannot play the games in your computer because of high graphics requirement... so if i feel bored, me and my friends will hang out in there... the computer at cybercafe have a huge collection of games, musics, high speed LAN and much more...

hi there gxtiantian! i also used to go to internet bars (in the Philippines, we call them internet cafes) when i did not have a computer of my own. when i had my own computer, i did not go to internet cafes anymore since it costs significantly less to use your home computer than to surf in an internet cafe. the electricity you use for 1 day of internet surfing at home would be equivalent to just 3 hours of using the computer in an internet cafe. but, around 2 years ago, i had to hang out at an internet cafe even if i had my own pc at home. the reason is that two good friends of mine operate their own internet cafes. i used to work for them as their "resident PC technician". so i spent most of my time fixing their computers, and as one of the privileges, i get to use one of their computers for free when i'm doing nothing. =) i also get treated to free lunch and dinner. hahahaha! i miss those days. i see a lot of people and they're really very interesting. it's so much fun. now i'm stuck again to my home computer, but it's ok. it's still fun! =) thanks and more power to you! =)

I will go to Internet cafe even if I computer and internet at home. When somethings cannot be done in home, going to internet cafe is safe and better. To test some virus programs home computer is not safe for us.

No!I will not even think of going to internet bars after I have got my home connection.Since the speed in the internet bars are far slow,I dislike to go there.They are splitting the same connection to almost 8 or 10 computers and hence the slow down.Also the money you have to pay will also be greater compared to the thing when you use your home connection.So,I like to remain with my home internet connection.About the atmosphere,well,I don't personally like a densely populated crowd in a bar.Cheers!
